Sound Movement

Sound movement refers to how sound waves travel through a medium like air, water, or solids. When an object vibrates, it creates pressure waves that move outward in all directions. These waves push and pull surrounding particles, transmitting energy from the source to our ears. The speed and direction of sound movement depend on the medium's properties, such as density and elasticity. For example, sound moves faster in metal than in air. Understanding sound movement helps us grasp how we hear, how sound reaches different locations, and how environments affect sound transmission.
